Sayyiduna Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) reports: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) once went out to pray for rain, and without giving the adhan or iqamah, he led us in two rak‘ahs. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) delivered a sermon to us, supplicated to Allah Almighty, turned his face towards the qiblah while his hands were raised, then turned his cloak inside out, placing the right side on the left and the left side on the right.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Zaid Mazni (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) went out towards the Eid ground, prayed for rain, and when he faced the Qiblah, he turned his cloak inside out. Ishaq, in his narration, said: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) began with the prayer before the sermon, then turned towards the Qiblah and supplicated.

It is also narrated from his uncle (Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Zaid Mazni, may Allah be pleased with him), he says: I was present with the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, he went out to ask for rain and turned his back towards the people and stood facing the Qiblah and turned his cloak, then he began to supplicate, then he led two units of prayer and recited aloud in them. (It is narrated from another chain) He says: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, went out towards the Eid ground, he supplicated for rain, and when he faced the Qiblah, he turned his cloak.

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came out in a state of fear, supplicating earnestly, showing humility, wearing old clothes, and walking with pauses. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) led the people in two units of prayer like the Eid prayer, and he did not deliver a sermon like your sermon.
